Слова
There is no back East
There's no out west
For the land that I stand on
Is where my ancestors rest
My grandpa a miner
The shadows of Ludlow
From teenage to black lung
A digger of coal
My grandma a mother
Eleven under her care
Would wash his Loñas
He only had two pair
He'd leave in the mornings
Metal lunchbox that stacks
Return in the evenings
Completely covered in ash
I Navigate the Modern world
With an ancient map of pain
A secular penitente coming home
Singing in the rain
When they had my mother
They were already grey
They moved to Denver
When the jobs moved away
Still they gave us their stories
And they gave us wings
They taught us to feel
With the breath that we sing
So my future ancestors
This bequest to you
We are not canaries in a cage
Their spirit led us through
I Navigate the Modern world
With an ancient map of pain
A secular penitente coming home
Singing in the rain
So I flip the scope from me
To our larger world
The future of humankind
Is being Unfurled
Didn't cross no borders
The borders crossed us
Guadalupe Hidalgo
Broken treaty unjust
So please don't tell us
To go back home
For these peaks and these rivers
They Weave our genome
So man with the red hat
Get it straight
They want to divide and conquer us
They don't want us to relate
So look in my eyes
The bloodshot veins
And let's share a breath
In our mother's names
I Navigate the Modern world
With an ancient map of pain
A secular penitente coming home
Singing in the rain
I Navigate the Modern world
With an ancient map of pain
A secular penitente coming home
Singing in the rain
